Plus interest might amount to another $10 or even $20 million, but no way $300 million.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So Iran actually got NOTHING they weren’t already getting when Obama got that deal.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">prius04</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 29 May 2026 20:17:43 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re:

Often deceptively, but they are Republicans so I repeat myself on that aspect.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Gordie Howe bridge will also be a toll bridge but obviously it will cut down the traffic, and the profits, of the current bridge.&lt;br&gt;And the patriarch of that family was accused of cheating fellow family members out of their inheritance and there are a few dozen other stories that make him sound like Trump. That patriarch died in 2020 but the family follows in his footsteps.   Who knows whether he was in the Trump files.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So because of Citizens United and the existence of crypto, it's impossible to determine how big a bribe that family paid to the guy who rapes kids.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">prius04</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 10 Feb 2026 13:42:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Premiere of a Docu-Bribe</title><link>https://politicalwire.com/2026/01/30/the-premiere-of-a-docu-bribe/#comment-6831339174</link><description>&lt;p&gt;The horrible box office is Pam Bondi's fault.   Clearly the producers timed this movie's release to coincide with the release of her Epstein videos in the Epstein files because as we all know, sex scenes are great for ticket sales.   And obviously they were meant to be included in this release.&lt;br&gt;She hasn't released them so I suspect they are already planning either a "director's cut" or a "part two" release when her videos get released.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">prius04</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 30 Jan 2026 12:18:11 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re:

Both of them won majorities according to numerous international bodies.&lt;br&gt;Both of them now need to show up in Caracas under United Nations protections to take over running that nation. They should arrive with an escort from British, French, Japanese and German forces, and maybe a few others and start right off by demanding that all US forces vacate.   Now I'm not suggesting those UN forces get involved in designing a new nation, only that they protect those two from the pro authoritarian lackeys from the Maduro administration.&lt;br&gt;And those two need to start the process of firing every Maduro lackey and getting to new elections.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We can't allow Trump to simply put in place new authoritarians who would be beholding to him.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">prius04</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 05 Jan 2026 18:16:38 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Trump’s Appointment of Envoy Draws Angry Response</title><link>https://politicalwire.com/2025/12/22/trumps-appointment-of-envoy-draws-angry-response/#comment-6813672750</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Based upon the rhetoric that led up to this appointment, could Denmark detain this guy when he arrives in Greenland, on suspicion of insurrection, fly him to Denmark and interview him there?&lt;br&gt;Then ship him to that El Salvador prison?&lt;br&gt;Seems to me there are precedents for doing just that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just wondering.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">prius04</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 22 Dec 2025 12:46:51 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re:
